Best Antivirus System? Avast on Vista?… Info… PLEASE HELP!?

October 20th, 2008 · 2 Comments

I have a dual-boot computer with Windows XP and Windows Vista. I use nod-32 Anti-virus System on my Windows XP, and it is a fast efficient computer. Also, nod-32 detects any incoming viruses or harmful programs.

However, nod 32 is not compatible on Windows Vista.. so I downloaded Avast Anti-virus. Even though Vista was slow by itself (at least significantly slower than XP), I think Avast! has made it even slower. What is a good, free anti-virus system that is light on computer usage so it doesn’t slow down my computer, and is efficient and powerful at catching and blocking viruses?

Do you think nod-32 will create a program that is compatible with Vista?

Please help!

      What ever you do..Do not do Antivirus 2009!! I chose it and look at me, I’ve been up for 6 hours trying to figure it out..

      Google Antivirus 2009 and similar ones..

      DO NOT DO IT UNLESS YOU ARE A GEEK AND WANT TO TRY IT FOR THE HECK OF IT!

      Please, If you do,do it do not pay them..

      I use Avira AntiVir on Vista. I do security testing and the program occupies very low overhead (doesn’t slow your system down) and hasn’t let any known viruses through. I guarantee once you try you won’t go back. Download free at http://www.free-av.com

    A Slow System?
    Harassed by DLL errors?
    Plagued by constant Blue Screens?
    Receiving error messages and don't know why?
